Eltham Well Hall - 1972

from Signals to Danger

In June 1972, a day of leisure for railway workers and their families ended in tragedy on the curve at Eltham Well Hall. This episode examines the circumstances surrounding one of the UK's most avoidable rail accidents — a derailment caused by a driver under the influence of alcohol. This week we’re covering how a single catastrophic decision led to the loss of five lives and injury to over a hundred more.
